Rare Snowy Day in Happy Valley

Rare Snowy Day in Happy Valley

There’s Big Ten weather at a Big Ten stadium today, a rarity for the month of October. It’s snowing in State College, Pa., where surprising Penn State hosts suddenly struggling Illinois at 3:30 ET.

This marks the first time there has been measurable snowfall on the same day as a Penn State home game in October, according to Penn State SIDs. As of 1:30 ET, 3.5 inches of the white stuff has fallen. It should be fun – even if the conditions aren’t ideal for much offense.

Kids sledding in the Beaver Stadium parking lot. Probably never has happened before a game here.
